[QUOTE]Originally posted by Archeopteryx: [QB] [QUOTE]Posted by Djehuti I don't disagree with your assessment above. By "authorities" I don't mean the owners of the museums or even private collectors themselves per say. Perhaps it is due to the problem of funding since it seems a lot more is done to document and digitize ancient Egyptian artwork than those of ancient Aegean. I've seen more Aegean fresco pictures in books than I have on the internet though I do have my suspicions. As I've said many times before, the only place where I've seen the extensive murals of Knossos are in the waiting halls of the 'Poseidon's Fury' ride in Universal Studios theme park in Florida. It was an exact duplicate of the one in Crete! So if they could do that in a theme park I don't know why they can't make those murals available in the internet.[/QUOTE]Funding is also always a factor in the museum world (and in the antiquarian world overall), that is one of the things people who work there most complain over, also up here in Sweden. In Greece funding also seems a bit shaky sometimes. That goes for all kinds of projects. One can guess that more and more material from Greece will be available online, but funding can be one factor that so little have been done. But one think they would be able to get subsidiaries from EU and other organisations for cultural projects like that. One can wonder who made the duplicates in Florida? Who paid for it? [/QB][/QUOTE]
